... what should I wear in the summer? I stopped breastfeeding at the start of lockdown and have packed away my bf tops and dresses which was all I’d been wearing for ages. My pre pregnancy t shirts all look pretty old and rubbish now and I want to buy a few new tops to wear, but I don’t know where to look or what to get. Maybe some new jeans too - office dress code is whatever you like now even before all the WFH which will be in place for the foreseeable.
I find winter dressing easy as I love wearing a big chunky or loose jumper with skinny/ slim jeans and boots (black Grenson Nanette or Vans sk8 hi). If I replace the jumper with a t shirt it just doesn’t look flattering with my current t shirts - think there is too much emphasis on tummy area. I’m 37, 5’4” and a size 12 with 32F boobs. No idea if weight - my pre preg clothes fit but I think my tummy is a bit more obvious than it used to be. A shirt with sleeves rolled up looks good and is my style but I refuse to buy more clothes that require ironing now that I have a toddler and no time!
Jeans wise I like my Levi’s 712 slim but am considering trying something wider to wear rolled up, e.g these hiutdenim.co.uk/products/original-selvedge-the-peggy
I have some nice shorts I wear in hot weather but again struggle with tops. Feel like I should be wearing dresses but I kind of associate them with dressing formally and I get chilly with bare legs unless it’s super super hot.
Help please!
